How can I transfer my records to cd? Best quality
Geez, don't let these guys scare you away from this. It's not that hard to do, plus if you have a nice sounding vinyl rig the CDs you get are going to sound a lot better than buying them on CD. Here is a thread with some info on it. http://forum.a... 
iPod/iPhone Audio Quality
JamnestaI did multiple comparisons between the newest (6th generation?) vs my 80GB 5th. The 160GB was noticably better. I only compared on a set of Shure E500 phones direct into the ipods as well as on a Monitor Audio ideck system. I thought the 1... 
iPod/iPhone Audio Quality
Ablang-If you have only heard a 30GB ipod, you must audition one of the new ones. With each generation the sound has improved. The new 160GB model sounds A LOT better than your 30GB. Still not a replacement for quality digital, but for what it is,...

Joe, that would be a great comparison. The price of the MSB looks great. The only problem is you would still need an interface with a digital input to make use of the MSB since it is only an AD converter. The Apogee on the other hand is the interf... 
Best sounding solution for Ipod
If you are talking about the sound of the ipod itself, then the easiest upgrade assuming you don't already have it is the newest generation ipods. I borrowed my friends new 160gb and compared it to my generation before that 80gb that I own and I w...

Also check out the E-MU 0404 http://www.sweetwater.com/store/detail/0404USB/ for a USB alternative. It's cheaper. I'd still go with the Apogee.

The only downside I see to the Duet is that it doesn't offer Digital IO, which means you can't add a better AD converter later if you wanted to. You probably won't care though since it is an Apogee and it already has a pretty great AD converter bu... 
What's the best, or your fave Johnny Cash song?
The Mercy Seat from American III is one of my favs. 
From Pass X250,5 to 350,5 : what to expect?
Better dynamics. I strongly disagree that more power is a bad thing. Unless you only listen to quiet whispy music more power will give you better dynamics which equates to sound that is more like real life.

You need a better interface for your Mac, like the Apogee Duet. Make sure that pure vinyl will work OK with it. Check with their customer service on what works well. The Apogee is a good choice since they are known for making great sounding pro au...

VonSchweikert VR4JR vs Magenpan MG 1.6
I've owned the 3.6s and heard the 1.6s at length, as well as owned the VR 4JRs and now I own the 4SRs. Personally I'd say that it would be a big step in the wrong direction to replace the JRs with the 1.6s. I think the JRs are in every way a bette... 
Freak Me Out
Squarepusher! Wow Duane you are really branching out. You gotta check out David Torn's new album, it's kinda a freakout itself.

The Masterlink burns at 4X, so a 40 minute LP takes about 10 minutes. It takes longer if you add DSP to the file, but I don't usually do that unless I'm getting stuff from cassette tape.I can edit a 10 song LP in about 10 minutes. I guess I'm good...
